announced the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will extend several free meals for kids, flexibilities through as late as December 31, 2020.<\/p>\n<p>The flexibilities allow summer meal program operators to continue serving free meals to all children into the fall months. This unprecedented move will help ensure \u2013 no matter what the situation is on-the-ground \u2013 children have access to nutritious food as the country recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic. USDA has been and continues to be committed to using the Congressionally appropriated funding that has been made available.<\/p>\n<p>Secretary Perdue says, \u201cAs our nation reopens and people return to work, it remains critical our children continue to receive safe, healthy, and nutritious food. During the COVID-19 pandemic, USDA has provided an unprecedented amount of flexibilities to help schools feed kids through the school meal programs, and today, we are also extending summer meal program flexibilities for as long as we can, legally and financially.\u00a0 We appreciate the incredible efforts by our school foodservice professionals year in and year out, but this year we have an unprecedented situation. This extension of summer program authority will employ summer program sponsors to ensure meals are reaching all children \u2013 whether they are learning in the classroom or virtually \u2013\u00a0so they are fed and ready to learn, even in new and ever-changing learning environments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>School Nutrition Association (SNA) President Reggie Ross, SNS \u201cSchool Nutrition Association greatly appreciates USDA addressing the critical challenges shared by our members serving students on the frontlines these first weeks of school. These waivers will allow school nutrition professionals to focus on nourishing hungry children for success, rather than scrambling to process paperwork and verify eligibility in the midst of a pandemic.\u00a0 We look forward to continuing our dialogue with USDA to ensure school meal programs are equipped to meet the future needs of America\u2019s students.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-201912\" src=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/tripleA-300x202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/tripleA-300x202.jpg 300w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/tripleA-260x175.jpg 260w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/tripleA.jpg 445w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Fargo(Aug. 31, 2020) \u2014 While gas prices across North Dakota rose 1.5 cents in August, it\u2019s been 16 years since motorists paid a lower average price for the month.<\/p>\n<p>Monday\u2019s statewide average stands at $2.11 while the national average is $2.23. On this day one year ago, North Dakota motorists where paying $2.57, while nationally the average stood at $2.58.<\/p>\n<p>The average price paid for a gallon of regular gas in North Dakota during August was $2.10. Last year the monthly average was $2.63. The last time the August average was below $2.10 was in 2004 when the average was $1.93.<\/p>\n<p>Gasoline demand continues to increase but still remains below last year\u2019s level.

(AP) \u2014 The Republican-controlled Wisconsin Legislature took no action in a special session called by the state\u2019s Democratic governor to pass a package of bills on policing policies. The brief session came just over a week after a Kenosha police officer shot Jacob Blake seven times in the back. Republicans started the session and recessed in both the Senate and Assembly in less than 30 seconds. That satisfied requirements of the law that they meet, even though almost no lawmakers were present. It\u2019s a tactic Republicans used in November when Gov. Tony Evers tried to force them to take action on gun control bills.<\/p>\n<p>KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) \u2014 Some residents in Kenosha fear a planned visit by President Donald Trump days after unrest over a police shooting may stir more emotions. Trump is scheduled to tour the damage Tuesday and meet with law enforcement as demonstrators call for an officer to face attempted murder charges in the shooting of Jacob Blake. His visit comes a week after authorities say a 17-year-old from northern Illinois shot and killed two protesters. The tension began Aug. 23 after a video showed a Kenosha police officer shooting Blake in the back. Blake is a 29-year-old Black man. His family says he&#8217;s paralyzed<\/p>\n<p>In world and national news&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>PITTSBURGH (AP) \u2014 Joe Biden is forcefully condemning the violence at recent protests while also blaming President Donald Trump for fomenting the divide that\u2019s sparking it. He\u2019s dismissing his presidential opponent as incapable of tackling the violence himself. Biden said Monday in Pittsburgh that Trump can&#8217;t stop the violence \u201cbecause for years he&#8217;s fomented it.\u201d Trump says Biden won&#8217;t condemn the violence, but Biden said Monday, \u201cIt\u2019s lawlessness, plain and simple. And those who do it should be prosecuted,.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 A federal appeals court won\u2019t order the dismissal of the Michael Flynn prosecution. The court ruled Monday that a judge is entitled to scrutinize the Justice Department\u2019s request to dismiss its case against the former Trump administration national security adviser. The decision keeps the case at least temporarily alive. In May, the Justice Department moved to dismiss the prosecution even though Flynn himself had pleaded guilty and admitted lying to the FBI during the Russia investigation. Flynn was the only person charged in special counsel Robert Mueller\u2019s investigation who had been a White House official. Mueller\u2019s probe investigated ties between the 2016 Trump campaign and Russia.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BRUSSELS (AP) \u2014 In a world turned upside down by the coronavirus pandemic, rarely have so many kids relished the end of their summer vacations and rarely have so many teachers faced such anxiety. School bells will ring in a new year across much of Europe starting Tuesday but there are fears that many school are not ready to handle in-class operations safely enough. After months of lockdowns and uneven online instruction since COVID-19 hit Europe, tens of millions of kids will be unleashed upon one another in classrooms, gyms and playgrounds again. While it&#8217;s a joyous time for youngsters, parents and teachers are uneasy about how that will fuel the continent\u2019s infection rates, which are already much higher now than in May.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 A May 2021 trial date has been set for President Donald Trump&#8217;s former chief strategist on charges that he cheated donors to a group seeking to fund a southern border wall. Steve Bannon appeared by audio but could not be seen Monday on a video screen before U.S. District Judge Analisa Torres. She set a May 24 trial date. He was charged two weeks ago along with three others with unlawfully raising over $25 million. Prosecutors say thousands of investors were duped into thinking all of their donations would go toward the project. But the government alleges that Bannon diverted over a million dollars. He has pleaded not guilty.<\/p>\n<p>Bismarck\u00a0 (CSi) \u00a0 \u2013 Gov.
